      I think you are forgetting that there are a lot of hobby farms that were using TS to get their chickens and feed. Lots of gay hobby farms. These people were the profit margin for TS.

        They also sell rubber horse stall mats which are way cheaper to buy than actual flooring if you’re building a home gym. There are other places to get horse stall mats though.

        Lots of gay hobby farms.

        I know you didn’t mean it that way but I kinda want to see what that would look like.

          You’ve never seen a gay hobby horse?

          No one ever falls out of the saddle, I don’t know why. Must all be great riders.

        They sure do, but it’s all overpriced.

        I’m sure they do, but what is it that they sell that the average lemmy user buys?

          The one near us has a self serve dog wash. I can take my dogs and use their water, their shampoo, their towels, their dryers, and not have my bathroom covered in dog hair for $10.

          They generally have a lot of animal supplies, for pets, farm animals, and wildlife. Food, medicines, etc. Lemmy folks seem to really like animals.
